That's the thing. 50 years. Don't look at it as decay, but character! If the tikis were all replaced with new ones, we'd hate it. If they continue like they are, they will be fine for another 100 years.

I talked a lot with the owners last week, and they are very into details. Yes, the roof leaks, but you have to imagine the cost of fixing that structure correctly.

I'm afraid my nose gets a little bent now when you gripe about the Mai Kai's "decay." It's like you're saying my baby's ugly!
